Gonna take you back to your youth (because no one over the age of like 16 legitly watches wrestling anymore do they?) with this one and take a look at some of the Monster’s favorite wrestlers from the past and what they are up too now. Not included in this list is Hulk Hogan, because he’s around in the public eye still.
RAZOR RAMON
Razor Ramon was the greasiest mofo in the game back in they day,and he OWNED it. When he used to throw that toothpick in the haters faces, that was HILARIOUS to me. He went under other aliases over his long career including real name Scott Hall. Hall has been wrestling since 1984. Sadly, he currently wrestles in the JCW or the Juggalo Championship Wrestling league. I wish I was making that up. For those of you that don’t know….Juggalo’s are what the hardcore fans of Insane Clown Possee call themselves, and the JCW is run by the group.
DIAMOND DALLAS PAGE
Self High Five!!! DDP….TOOOOO COOOOOOOOL!!! haha. Diamond Dallas Page was probably my favorite wrestler when I was a kid overall. That Diamond Cutter was no joke!! Check out the above mix of him DC-in everyone. Since being retired from wrestling, he has helped make the “Yoga For Regular Guys” DVDs as well as dabbled in some acting. He had a scene in “40 Year Old Virgin” that got deleted, but has had other small roles in movies including one in the upcoming western/horror flick called “Gallowwalker”.
STING
I liked Sting back in the day too. Not black/white face NWO Sting, but old school flourescent yellows/pinks/oranges Sting. That’s the real deal Sting right there. He currently still wrestles for TNA Wrestling. Sting became a born-again Christian in 1998 and is very active with his family in their Church in Santa Clarita, CA.
BIG VAN VADER
You may remember Vader from his wrestling days, or also from his cameos on “Boy Meets World” (that’s right, I just wrote that). The Vader Bomb was one of the most feared finishing moves in the game back in the day. As of July 2009, Vader spends time in Japan tutoring his son in wrestling. When he is in the US, he has a part time job at Staples Inc in the pricing department, enjoys riding motorcycles, and lives in Manchester, New York.
Saturday morning WWF used to be the BEST!
Sadly, Scott Hall (aka, Razor Ramon) is also joined in the JCW by the once great Rowdy Roddy Piper and Kevin Nash. My how the mighty have fallen.
Great post!!
sting was one of my all-time fav’s too, before he went all ‘evil’ with NWO.
Also really liked Taz (think that was his name) because his intros were always super-high energy and he would run down the aisle, into the ring and then run circles inside it; the whole time screaming and doing flips and shit.
sounds similar to how you play basketball Mr. Slizwald Murphy.
hahahahah
Where is Jake the Snake? I had a birthday party once at Golden Corral (seriously) and a girl brought me a Jake the Snake Digital Watch. Still got it
Also the Undertaker was and still is the baddest mofo in wrestling
Sadly, none of these can compare to my man Mick Foley, aka Cactus Jack, aka Dude Love, aka Mankind. Gotta represent the first-ever WWF Hardcore Champion.
benjibbles – I know you asked like a year ago but last I heard Jake The Snake Roberts had a serious drug problem. I hope he’s recovered but idk.
